Verse 1: Gee, but I'm lonesome, lonesome and blue.
I've found out something I never knew.
I know now what it meas to be sad,
For I've lost the best gal (pal) I ever had;
She (He) only left yesterday, Somebody stole her (him) away.

Chorus (Man): Somebody stole my gal, Somebody stole my pal.
Somebody came and took her away, She didn't even say she was leavin'
The kisses I love so, He's getting now I know,
And Gee! I know that she would come to me if she could see,
Her broken hearted lonesome pal, Somebody stole my gal.

Chorus (Woman): Somebody stole my pal, Somebody left his gal.
Somebody came and took him away, He didn't even say he was leavin'
The kisses I love so, She's getting now I know,
And Gee! I know that he would come to me if he could see,
His broken hearted lonesome gal, Somebody stole my pal.

Verse 2: Angels they say are only above.
I know that's wrong because my old love,
Sure is an angel, take it from me,
And she's (he's) all the angel I want to see;
Maybe she'll (he'll) come back some day, All I can do now is pray.

Chorus: Somebody stole my gal, Somebody stole my pal.
Somebody came and took her away, She didn't even say she was leavin'
The kisses I love so, He's getting now I know,
And Gee! I know that she would come to me if she could see,
Her broken hearted lonesome pal, Somebody stole my gal.

And Gee! I know that she would come to me if she could see,
Her broken hearted lonesome pal,
Somebody stole my, somebody stole my, somebody stole my gal!
